I like the blind fold method, have used it myself with good results. The no chute problem you have, can be fixed. Get a coulpe of post and put them about 3 to 3 1/2 feet from tie rail and place the steer between the post. This will help with the twisting.
: It sounds like he gets upset when you get
: close to his front end, try blind folding
: him, take a towl and but it ofer his eyes
: and tuck the ends under the halter rope. If
: that doesn't work try this. Since you dont
: have shoot to work him in, try tying his
: head up high in a corner, then swing one
: side toward the rails, then drop a rope over
: his flank and tie him to the rail, you can
: work on the one side that is not on the
: rail, than just swing him the other way and
: work on the otherside.
